Where to get parts?

Hi all,
Just wondering where everyone has found the best price on OEM oil filters, cabin filters, fuel filters, wipers, etc? thanks!

Any time I need something I send an email to Classic Auto Campus. They give us NAM membvers a 20% discount. So even with shipping it is less than traveling to the dealer. Just my thoughts.

Look for them in the vendor directory.

I generally usa NAPA. I'll pay a few more cents for quality. The oil filter I got from them was superior to the OEM Mini filter.

For OEM parts not available in aftermarket, I usually deal with Classic Auto. Great service and good prices which beat what you can usually find at the local dealer.. For commodity/consumables, the local NAPA store is where I buy.

As others have said, classic is great. I usually go to the local auto parts store for wipers and generic stuff. Oil filters and cabin filters I buy from my local dealership... There are a ton of aftermarket things. Check the vendor directory for that list. Hope that helps.
